It can download Spotify songs, albums and playlists to computer and convert to MP3, M4A, WAV or FLAC for offline listening on unlimited devices. Spotify Music Converter is extremely easy-to-use, you can download any favorite songs by drag-and-drop operation or pasting links of songs, albums, playlists and artists to the program. The Spotify window shows various alerts to your offline status: a broken symbol at the bottom-right of the window; a message above the main pane alerting you to the fact that Spotify can’t detect an Internet connection and will keep trying until it does; and the People sidebar that usually lists all your contacts informing you that it’s unavailable in Offline mode.

Sunscreen; check. Hat; check. Playlists; ready for anything—even a vacation destination without Wi-Fi.

Being completely disconnected from Wi-Fi and data—whether in an airplane or rustic cabin in the woods—doesn’t mean you need to be without your favorite music or podcasts. If you’re a Premium subscriber, it only takes a few simple steps while you’re still at home and on Wi-Fi to download your favorite content and ensure it’s available when you go off the grid or up in the air.

First, if you’d like to use Wi-Fi to download, go to Settings > Music Quality > Download Using Cellular and check that the feature is set to the default “off.” From there, it’s easy to download tracks and podcasts on your cell phone, tablet, or iPad:

1. Search for the content you want
2. Select the playlist, album, or podcast you want to listen to offline
3. Switch the download toggle ON—it will turn green so you know it’s working
4. Once tracks in your library are downloaded, you’ll see a little green arrow below each song name
5. Connect your headphones and start listening, no matter where you are!

If you’re using Spotify on desktop, but still want to take those songs or podcast episodes with you on your mobile device:

1. Select songs to download automatically to your device by clicking the plus symbol next to any track
2. That plus symbol will turn into a checkmark, which means the song will sync to your phone next time it’s connected to WiFi
3. If you’re looking to organize your downloads, now’s the time! Using your computer to organize tracks into a playlist before you go can be a bit easier

Note that if you’re seeing songs grayed out when you’re offline, it means they’re not downloaded and you won’t be able to play them without Wi-Fi. (It might be a good idea to experiment with going online before you board the plane.) To see everything you’ve downloaded on your phone, check out the “Downloads” tab under “Your Library” on mobile.

Also know that there’s a maximum to the number of songs and podcasts you can download per device. If you do hit the limit, you can always go back and remove some existing downloads.

Plus, keep in mind that in order for Premium subscribers to keep all downloads available, you’ll need to connect your phone to Wi-Fi at least once every 30 days. So if you’re on an extended hiking trip, just make sure to connect to Wi-Fi at least once per month if you want to keep streaming.
